Yeah all is alright with the bike, but already thinking about selling it to get a different hardtail but not really decided yet. You been biking much?? i've not done much for a while just back and forward to work.:( Put my bike on RMR so you can have a look.

Thought i'd say hello to a fellow female and 'beginner' although you have far to many pictures to be in that class anymore!! Do you still get to Llandeglar much? O.

Hi how's it going? i've not had much of a chance to get on here lately or to do some biking, how much did yer man manage to raise for charity? hope he got a few donations, he probably owes you a bottle of wine for helping. Got myself a new bike a mondraker foxy, feels pretty good but only really had it out once as my biking buddy is expecting his first kid, was due the 24th so think she will probably go the 2 weeks over. Out for my Bday tonight at least woop woop.

Hi how's it going, been upto much lately?? i got out for a little local run nothing special but it's about 35mile or so on and off road but was pretty knackered afterwards, done a jump that i thought was only about 6foot wide but was at least 10 foot wide and i never really carried enough speed and....well lets just say i ended up on my head. :( That was my first proper ride for about 6 month but at least there was no harm done.

Hi there good to hear you are getting on well with the new steed, i've not been on much and have only been cycling to work to be honest, think i might be going out next sunday with my mate for a lite run as he dislocated his finger at fort bill and is taking it easy. How's your man getting on?? hope he isn't using his arm as an excuse if you beat his down a trail.Ha!

Ended up not going as it rained so heavey, but maybe this week. Been up to much yourself?

Hey! get out on the bike at the weekend?? i'm going for a little buzz on a local trail l8r today to see how i get on, if it goes well i think we are going to go to fort william at the end of the month which should be good as i've never done it before.

Yeah i'm good and finger is slowly healing, have to work on trying to bend it as the tendon is tight and it still looks like a fat sausage....had to be my braking finger. Good to see you got out on the cube, i've not really got any tips on jumps as i'm probably not the best, i try not to land on my head.Lol!

Hiya, glad to hear you are loving your Cube! The BMX's are finished (until they destroy them again) and still changing bits on their Treks, as I guess will continue!

callan wrote on 21 June 2010 09:07

Alright how's it going, you been out on the new bike much?

wythall1 wrote on 13 June 2010 13:44

No I have not had time this week, I have been busy rebuilding a BMX that was pretty much destroyed by my older Son! he decided he wanted to use it again as well as his Trek.

How are you liking you Cube?

dont know if you've seen, but your new bike is bike of the day. Congrats

Good news on the bike turning up early hopefully the weather will turn for the weekend and you can get out for a run. Not really looked at frames much as i'm not in a hurry as i can't really ride til this dam finger gets better, i'm not sure weather to buy a frame and transfer all my gear or just sell the whole bike and start from scratch.

Thanks for the comment on me Cube,I like the look of the Ams's but prefer the look of the Hanzz full sus

callan wrote on 3 June 2010 08:33

No not just pace frames, been looking around but nothing really grabbed my attention but i thinks it's because there's to much choice. Still not even sure if i want a hardtail or go back to full bouncer, HT is a breeze going up the hills and very lively coming down but you can get away with a lot more on a full suss and your knee's and backside with thank you at the end of a ride. 8-) When are you getting you're new ride?

callan wrote on 24 May 2010 23:30

Just had a look on crc cycles and the cube looks like a sweet ride. My finger is not really any better yet, have to keep it in a splint thing until the end of the month so no biking for me, am thinking about buying a new frame maybe in a month or so but not sure kinda like the pace but it's a few years old now.

callan wrote on 17 May 2010 10:04

Been off the bike for just over 2weeks now and think it will probably be another 2 to 3weeks, have to take it easy because i cut the tendon which sucks as i don't drive either, and on the alcohol part there might have been some consumption.Ooops!
